Abstract

A non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe includes a dilution gas tube, a gas mixing tube, a sampling nozzle and a three-way shunt tube, in which the dilution gas tube is used for introducing a dilution gas, and forms, together with a gas mixing tube coaxially fitted therein, an annular passage for transporting the dilution gas; and the sampling nozzle is composed of an injection hole, an outer nozzle and an inner nozzle, and an annular gas flow gap formed between the inner nozzle and the gas mixing tube accelerates the flow of the dilution gas, and forms a negative pressure around the inner nozzle, thereby achieving the purpose of sucking the sample gas by the outer nozzle and mixing it with the dilution gas.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe, the sampling probe comprising a dilution gas tube, a gas mixing tube, a sampling nozzle and a three-way shunt tube,
wherein one end of the dilution gas tube is controllably connected with a gas source providing a dilution gas, and an inlet pressure is monitored by a first piezometer; the gas mixing tube is coaxially fitted in the interior of the dilution gas tube, and an annular passage is formed between the gas mixing tube and the dilution gas tube, thereby transporting the dilution gas to a distal end of the gas mixing tube via the annular passage;
the sampling nozzle is hermetically coupled to another end of the dilution gas tube, and is composed of a sample injection hole, an outer nozzle and an inner nozzle, wherein the inner nozzle is disposed around the sample injection hole, and an annular gas flow gap is formed between the inner nozzle and the distal end of the gas mixing tube, so that the dilution gas is continuously injected into the gas mixing tube via the annular gas flow gap, and a negative pressure is simultaneously formed in a vicinity of the inner nozzle; the outer nozzle is also disposed around the sample injection hole, with an injection direction of the outer nozzle opposite to that of the inner nozzle, so that a sample gas in a vicinity of the outer nozzle is sucked into the gas mixing tube through the sample injection hole, and then mixed with the dilution gas; and
a proximal end of the gas mixing tube is connected to the three-way shunt tube, and other two joints of the three-way shunt tube are respectively connected to a vacuum modulation valve and a particle analysis detector, thereby performing analysis and detection on the sample gas after dilution and mixing.

2. The non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe according to claim 1 , wherein the sampling probe further has a second piezometer for monitoring an outlet pressure of the proximal end, serving as an outlet end, of the gas mixing tube.

3. The non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe according to claim 1 , wherein the sampling nozzle is preferably made of a heat-resistant material having a thermal conductivity of less than 1 W/(m·K), and has a length designed to be greater than a depth of the probe into the flame.

4. The non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe according to claim 1 , wherein a key structural parameter of the annular gas flow gap is designed as follow: a flow area of the annular gas flow gap is smaller than a flow area of the annular passage between the dilution gas tube and the mixed gas tube.

5. The non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe according to claim 1 , wherein the inner nozzle is also designed with a taper angle ranging from 60° to 120°.

6. The non-water-cooled high temperature aerosol quantitative dilution sampling probe according to claim 1 , wherein the sampling nozzle, the gas mixing tube and the dilution gas tube are designed in a detachable structure.
